A quick trip to Utah!

Three of my sisters work for airlines so sometimes we get to take advantage of the perks that come with the job. This weekend Kimmy blessed baby Sawyer and she sent me a buddy pass so I was able to take a quick trip home for the big event! It was a really fast but fun weekend. I took 2 big suitcases full of Christmas gifts with me so I didn't have to do as much shipping which was a great idea except for the fact that to get from the long term parking at the Cleveland airiport to the terminal you have to walk forever!!!! So picture me walking through the airport with 2 big suitcases,another good size bag that was holding my clothes,my big purse and my big coat. Let's just say I have sore arms! You wouldn't think it would be that hard to pull suitcases but it was.

The weekend was fun I was able to do a little bit more Christmas shopping so again, I wouldn't have to ship as much stuff back to Utah. Of course we had to get my favorite salad from Cafe Rio. Yummy!!! My mom and I had planned to drive to Pocatello on Saturday because that is where Kimmy lives but becasue of the snow we weren't able to make the drive on saturday so we waitied until Sunday to go up. Olivia, Katie's baby turned 1 and I made it to the very end of her birthday party.

Mom, Katie and I headed up to Pocatello Sunday afternoon so we could help Kimmy get ready for the blessing that was going to be later in the evening. I got to see baby Sawyer for the first time. What a cutie. He looks just like his mommy!!! He was such a good baby!!!! The blessing went very well and Sawyer was amazing. He sat there wide eyed and just stared at Mark the entire time.






It was a great weekend and I wish I could have stayed longer but I was really missing Brandon, Mitch and Ali who were back home in Ohio.

Sometimes the quick trips are the best! You get to do what you need, but not miss the family at home too much...
